STATE OF THE UNION -- 2005 [Live Thread]
2/2/05
Posted on 02/02/2005 3:43:44 PM PST by Timeout
The pre-spin: Bush will spend about 1/2 the speech on foreign policy, 1/2 on domestic, with heavy emphasis on Social Security reform. It's said he will provide a detailed tutorial on the SS system and its problems with a few details on his personal accounts proposal.
Laura's guests are said to be an Afghan voter and an Iraqi voter (too bad there's no Ukrainian wearing an orange hat!).
Should we start a drinking game on how many times the pool camera swings to Hillary? Hmmm. Probably not...it would likely hamper out typing ability.
Word on the blogs has it that the closing part of the speech is a hum-dinger. Set your VCR's.
Report here on outrageous MediaCrat spin before AND after the SOTU. Pictures and screen caps welcome.

Did you folks see that Pelosi intends to refer to our military as "occupiers?" It's hard to believe she's representing an American state.

Bush will spend about 1/2 the speech on foreign policy, 1/2 on domestic, with heavy emphasis on Social Security reform.How is the media reporting this? "Pres. Bush will spend about half the speech on foreign policy, half on domestic policy, and the another half on Social Security."

Any details?None. I read over at NRO that his speechwriters told everyone the ending is really good. That's all.

They are really embarrassing themselves right now, and I think any continued obstructionism will help us gain more seats in the next election. If they prove to be as pigheaded as Daschle was, they may very well get the same treatment!

How about bumping this thread up on the sidebar? I almost didn't see it! Granted it's a mite early, but ...
Many thanks.

Since when is Kalifornica an American state (it may be an Amerikan one though).

I have been thinking for the last couple days, that I believe this speech will go down in history as one of the best.
